mkjv@Isaiah:48:1 @ Hear this, O house of Jacob, who are called by the name of Israel, and have come out of the waters of Judah; who swear by the name of the LORD and make mention of the God of Israel ( but] not in truth nor in righteousness).

mkjv@Isaiah:48:2 @ For they call themselves of the holy city, and rest themselves on the God of Israel; Jehovah of hosts [is] His name.

mkjv@Isaiah:48:3 @ I have foretold the former things from the beginning; and they went out of My mouth; and I made them hear; I acted suddenly; and they came about.

mkjv@Isaiah:48:4 @ Because I knew that you [are] obstinate, and your neck [is] an iron sinew and your brow bronze.

mkjv@Isaiah:48:5 @ And I declared [it] to you from the beginning. Before it happened I revealed it to you; lest you should say, My idol has done them, and my graven image, and my molten image, has commanded them.

mkjv@Isaiah:48:6 @ You heard; see it all; and will you not declare? I have shown you new things from this time, even hidden things, and you did not know them.

mkjv@Isaiah:48:7 @ They are created now, and not from the beginning; even before the day when you did not hear them; lest you should say, Behold, I knew them.

mkjv@Isaiah:48:8 @ Yea, you did not hear; yea, you did not know; yea, from the time that your ear was not opened; for I surely know that you will betray and trespass; from the womb it was called to you.

mkjv@Isaiah:48:9 @ For My name's sake I will put off My anger, and for My praise I will hold back for you, that I do not cut you off.

mkjv@Isaiah:48:10 @ Behold, I have refined you, but not with silver; I have chosen you in the furnace of affliction.

mkjv@Isaiah:48:11 @ For my sake, for My sake I will do it; for why should [My name] be defiled? And I will not give My glory to another.

mkjv@Isaiah:48:12 @ Listen to me, O Jacob and Israel, My called; I [am] He; I [am] the first, I also [am] the last.

mkjv@Isaiah:48:13 @ My hand also has laid the foundation of the earth, and My right hand has stretched out the heavens. I called; they stood up together.

mkjv@Isaiah:48:14 @ Let all of you gather and hear; who among them has declared these [things]? The LORD has loved him; He will do His pleasure on Babylon, and His arm [shall be] on the Chaldeans.

mkjv@Isaiah:48:15 @ I, I, have spoken; yea, I have called him; I brought him and he makes his way succeed.

mkjv@Isaiah:48:16 @ Come near to Me, hear this; I have not spoken in secret from the beginning. From its being, I [was] there; and now the Lord Jehovah, and His Spirit, has sent Me.

mkjv@Isaiah:48:17 @ So says Jehovah, your Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel, I [am] the LORD your God who teaches you to profit, who leads you by the way that you should go.

mkjv@Isaiah:48:18 @ Oh that you had paid attention to My commandments! Then your peace would have been like a river, and your righteousness like the waves of the sea.

mkjv@Isaiah:48:19 @ And your seed would have been like the sand, and the offspring of your bowels like its grain; his name would not have been cut off nor destroyed from before Me.

mkjv@Isaiah:48:20 @ Go out of Babylon; flee from the Chaldeans. Tell it with a voice of singing, let this be heard, let it go out to the end of the earth; say, The LORD has redeemed His servant Jacob.

mkjv@Isaiah:48:21 @ And they did not thirst [when] He led them through the deserts; He caused the waters to flow out of the rock for them; He cut open the rock also, and the waters gushed out.

mkjv@Isaiah:48:22 @ [There is] no peace, says the LORD, to the wicked.
